Hi...
I want to know if Borland will make some version of C++ Builder for
.NET, like Delphi 2005.
Actually I use C++ Builder 5 Enterprise very well and never find any
problems, but the new goal for the company is migrate all aplications to
Microsoft .NET framework, I´m C/C++ programer and I want still use
Borland Compilers, but I can't find any information about the future of
C++ Builder 6, in this case.
In this momment I don´t know what happend with C++ Builder and I know
VC.NET can create windows form´s now.
Is the time for leave C++ Builder and I use VC ?
Is the time for leave this community ?
I'm C/C++ programmer since 1991, I use Turbo C 2.0, Borland 3.1,
Borlannd 4.5, Borland 5, C++Builder 1, C++ Builder 3, C++ Builder 4 and
now C++ Builder 5. Is the time for change Borland and I use VC ?
I don´t want this....

the next version of Delphi:

This version will probably target Win32 development, with .NET support
to follow later. Nothing official yet, but based on the following
comment in the C++Builder chat last month:
bdn.borland.com/article/0,1410,32958,00.html
drbob42: "when we see the C++Builder personality in the Delphi (BDS)
IDE, will that mean a Win32 or a .NET C++ personality? (or both? ;-)"
- additional work will happen for .NET after this Win32-supporting
release
The C++/CLI binding that MS (and others) are now working on is a much
better approach, but will not be available until VS.NET 2005 is
released. It is a much neater and more complete solution. that
effectively replaces managed C++ (which MS will continue to support for
back compatibility only, not as an ongoing development)
and see the next version of both products, and then decide. I would
not like to pick any current product for .NET development in C++.
